The world's first county magistrate

Chapter 76 Woke Me Up

No arrests?

Li Bei raised his head in surprise and looked at the magistrate of Yongquan County.

So who is the arrester?
Li Bei always thought that Li Nan was arrested because someone reported it.

But now it seems that this matter is more complicated than he imagined.

It is impossible for a dignified county magistrate to lie to him, that is to say, the county magistrate really did not arrest anyone.

But Li Nan was indeed taken away, and he was taken away under the audience.

The county magistrate of Yongquan County has been observing Li Bei, and he can feel the shock from Li Bei's expression.

And it wasn't pretending, that is to say, Li Nan was really taken away.

"Don't worry, if what you said is true, then Li Nan was taken away by others. As the county magistrate of Yongquan County, I will definitely get to the bottom of it."

The magistrate of Yongquan County looked at Li Bei and persuaded him.

"Please also ask the adults to make decisions for the grassroots."

After hearing this, Li Bei knelt down again and said.

The county magistrate of Yongquan County nodded and helped Li Bei up again.

Then he turned to the government servant next to him and said, "Send someone to investigate and find out everything about the matter!"

At this time, the magistrate of Yongquan County was very angry, but he didn't show it when facing Li Bei.

As the head of a county, he should know everything in the county, but when the people were arrested, they were still arrested in his name.

This made him very angry, and he would never allow such a thing to happen again in his county.

"Yes!"

The clerk nodded and left.

The county magistrate of Yongquan County looked at Li Bei and said, "You might as well go to rest first, and I will give you an answer when there is a result."

The county magistrate of Yongquan County is very confident in his yamen servants, who are extremely efficient.

I believe there will be results soon.

Li Bei nodded.

Following a yamen servant to a room, Li Bei sat on a chair and began to think.

So far, things have exceeded Li Bei's expectations.

First of all, the county magistrate did not arrest people, which completely messed up the initial plan.

Li Bei did not expect such a thing to happen.

Then Li Bei began to think about who would take Li Nan away.

If it was against the order, then they must have known that the salt really belonged to Song Wei, otherwise they wouldn't be so confident.

But this matter is known to no one except his own people.

Could it be that there are traitors in the county government of Zhen'an County?
But then Li Bei shook his head, knowing that there were only a few people who delivered the salt, himself, Song Wei, Cai Hu, and a few people from the salt mine.

Everything is done in secret, and there is no possibility of leaks.

So who took Li Nan?
Li Bei has been immersed in his own world, and has not noticed the passage of time.

I don't know how long it has passed, and there is a knock on Li Bei's door.

Then a yamen servant came in: "Li Bei, sir, please."

Li Bei nodded and followed the yamen servant to a room.

The magistrate of Yongquan County was waiting among them.

"My lord, the person has already brought it."

Yamen servant said.

The magistrate of Yongquan County nodded.

Then the magistrate of Yongquan County turned to look at Li Bei.

"The matter has been investigated clearly. It is someone outside the king who captured your brother."

Wang Yuanwai?
Li Bei was stunned, he didn't know any Wang Yuanwai.

Li Bei has been in Zhen'an County, and he doesn't know much about Yongquan County.

The county magistrate of Yongquan County naturally saw Li Bei's expression, he thought Li Bei was frightened and didn't think much about it.

"You and I should be aware of Wang Yuanwai's behavior. Wang Yuanwai has been with me four days ago, and everyone in the county can testify. people."

"I have already asked Wang Yuanwai. Wang Yuanwai knows nothing about this matter. He also promised that I will investigate this matter strictly. With Wang Yuanwai's character, there should be a result soon."

"I called you here this time, first to talk to you about this, and second, to ask you, do you want to sue?"

The magistrate of Yongquan County said slowly.

Li Bei had been listening, but he still unconsciously thought that he had no grudge against that member Wang, and didn't even know him.

And he doesn't even bother with the common people as a member, so what the county magistrate said should be true.

However, it seems that he has nothing to do with the people in the palace.

Then why arrest Li Nan?

Li Bei couldn't think of a reason, when he heard the county magistrate ask himself.

"Sue, must sue!"

Li Bei became excited instantly.

"Caomin's parents died young, and only my younger brother is the only relative. If anything happens to my younger brother, then what's the point of me living alone in this world? Caomin must sue them, so that more people will not suffer. "

Li Bei was very excited when he spoke, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

The magistrate of Yongquan County was very excited when he saw it.

"Well, when there is news, I will start the trial immediately and return the truth to the world!"

The magistrate of Yongquan County looked at Li Bei and said.

"Yes, thank you, sir."

Li Bei replied.

At this time, Wang Yuanwai had a big head.

The county magistrate called him before, but he ended up asking about Li Nan's arrest.

If you don't react quickly, you may have a big problem.

But he felt uncomfortable at the moment. Although he promised the county magistrate that he would conduct a strict investigation, the county magistrate also sent a government official to accompany him.

Now he didn't even have a chance to cheat.

As soon as he returned to the palace, Wang Yuanwai was furious.

And he cursed loudly, which made the servants of the palace stunned.

"You guys arrested people privately while I was away, and you even pretended to be the county magistrate's order, you really ate a bear's heart and a leopard's guts!"

"Who the hell? Hurry up and stand up for me, and follow the yamen servant to the county yamen!"

"You won't tell me? If I find out who it is, I will break his legs!"

Wang Yuanwai was so tough that even the Yamen servant accompanying him twitched his lips.

Is this what a non-member can say?

But they didn't say anything. Their purpose was to follow Wang Yuanwai to investigate the matter clearly.

As for Wang Yuanwai?They don't care.

Wang Yuanwai came to a servant and asked: "Four days ago, did you see anyone coming back with someone?"

This servant is usually extremely nervous after seeing Wang Yuanwai, and this is Wang Yuanwai who has lost his temper.

That would be even more stressful.

"No. No, sir."

The servant spoke intermittently.

Wang Yuanwai frowned and called all the servants together.

"As long as someone tells you that you have seen anyone bring outsiders to the palace four days ago, I will reward that person with a tael of silver!"

This is the last way for Wang Yuanwai to stall for time.

If no one has come forward to admit that he did this at this time, then he will really start a strict investigation.

If it gets to that point, his son will definitely be found.

Now he extremely hopes that someone can stand up and take the blame.

However, these servants are like rotten heads, no one dares to speak at all.

Wang Yuanwai paused for a moment, but no one spoke.

So he said to the servants: "The palace is so big. Normally you can touch it just by showing up. Now none of you dare to speak. What use do I have for you?"

"Don't force me to check all the places in the palace!"

And just after Wang Yuanwai finished speaking, a door was suddenly opened.

An extremely fat man walked out of the room, and he rubbed his sleepy eyes.

Yawned: "What are you doing? It's so loud, it woke me up."
